How did you get involved in travel?
"I have always worked in public service industries, I am a people person :) . Originally from the UK I have lived in Iceland with my family for over 12 yr. For 4 years I was based at the TIF of Akureyri and during my time there learned a lot about Iceland! In 2013 was invited to join the Nonni Travel team and I felt it would be a positive, interesting move for me, which it has proven to be."
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"Iceland for its contrasts in colour and diversity of landscapes , Greenland for its remoteness and majestic icebergs and the Faroes for the islands scenic coastal roads and tranquility."
